They do sell some products that you'll have difficulty finding elsewhere, and their prices are low. I placed 7 orders with them in 2010-2014, with an average order-to-delivery time of 26 days. The last time I dealt with them, my order included a few mylar capacitors. They sent me the wrong ones, as could be seen from the part markings and verified by testing. I described the problem to them, and they sent me more of the wrong capacitors. I finally asked for a refund; they said they'd send it, but they didn't. Life is too short; I wouldn't deal with them again. |

Yeah, I ordered from them once, wouldn't do it again. One of the things I bought was a switch (not super cheap either)... the top twisted off when I did the locking nut up finger tight.... completely ruined, bought a C&K switch from another supplier and the quality is x100 better... :P |

I seriously wonder how they still manage to stay in business. --- End quote --- They seem to sell lots of products that you can't find anywhere else. Or at least that is my perception. --- End quote --- The products they are selling are available elsewhere, their only advantage is the low list price. However, what is good on saving few bucks when you have to wait months to get the package and in the end you are sent the wrong item or the item isn't even available, despite what is shown on their site? Life is too short for things like that, IMO. |

For those who have bought parts from Futurlec, are the parts genuine? Has anyone here ever received a fake IC from them? |
